Now let's move on to some swatches! Today I've got L'Oreal Amazon's Flash,a bright yellow gold foil, for you. It was released around Fall 2011 but I still see this hanging around when I'm out shopping. I was originally drawn to how intensely bright Amazon's Flash is and I thought I was really going to love this polish but once I put it on, I wasn't so sure. It grew on me the longer I wore it and I still really like the idea of this polish but I'm torn about whether I find it flattering on me personally.
This polish is a mixed bag for me. I like it but I'm not head over heels for it like I'd hoped. Oh well, it's still pretty-and boy, is this sucker ever BRIGHT. I really can't stress that enough haha. If you want a gold foil that's a little on the different side, Amazon's Flash might be worth a look. I think this would look fabulous on someone with a warmer skintone than mine!
I love how gorgeous this is!! I didn't get it because yellow golds look terrible on me. >.< *cry*
ReplyDeleteYour nails look stunning! :D
This is a cool color! I love how super bright and gold it is. It would probably be one of those colors that might not look the best on me, but I would badly want it to.
ReplyDeleteIt's bright alright, lol!! But I love it on you.
ReplyDeletei picked this one up but was discouraged by the opacity after one coat so i gave up haha. I'll definitely have to try it again!
ReplyDeleteThis is very pretty! I love yellow it is my favorite color so this really call my attention.
ReplyDeleteWow! Your nails look absolutely amazing - so gold! You have a great blog, I love the concept and this post... oh, and I also adore the beautiful vibrant background.
ReplyDeleteNice blog - keep up the good work!
Love this color, you're rockin it!
ReplyDelete@Ashesela: Thank you! I'm not sure yellow gold looks very good on me either but I'm still drawn to the shine of this polish.
ReplyDelete@Melissa: I think that's how I feel. This color is so pretty and I want it to look great on me but I'm not 100% certain it does. Oh well...
@MariJo: Thank you! This is definitely a polish other people notice when you wear it--it's insanely shiny!
@SeeSarahSwatch: Yeah I still had a little patchiness here and there after three coats which was kind of a bummer but I don't think anyone else would notice it--the shine is too distracting haha. Definitely worth picking back up after you tried it before though! :)
@Nory: Thanks! I liked that it was different but I'm not sure I can rock the yellow tones so much. :-/
@Zoe: Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy reading!
@Sheba: Thank you!
